What is on your heart?

It has been a Monday today. An amazing one. Are you still playing Monday morning blues? You better stop, because that’s old fashioned. The new is Monday morning rock ‘n’ roll.

Right now I am working with WordPress and am in the process of developing my first custom theme. I was amazed at how easy it was (to get started), and it gives me energy to know that the learning curve isn’t to steep. When it is finished you’ll get to see it. It’s good.

I love my job. Maybe you don’t have your dream job right now, but I’ll just take this chance to encourage you. Most of us go through some crappy, boring jobs before we get where we want to be. I have been out in a dark forest putting advertising that people don’t want in their mailboxes, night after night for the longest time. And that is just one of the jobs. We gotta start somewhere. Just keep your head up, keep aiming at your target and keep a good attitude. There is a principle that goes something like this.

“If you do a good job with small tasks and little responsibility, you will do a good job with bigger tasks and more responsibility.”

I think Jesus said that. If you make amazing websites without compromising quality when you are at home practicing, you are ready to deliver great products when you get out there to the customers. Don’t sit around waiting for “the big opportunity”, work with what you have or you wont be ready when the opportunity strikes.

“If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as a Michaelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, ‘Here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.”Martin Luther King Jr.

That is a good quote. Birth visions and follow them, keeping your head up and a good attitude in all the tasks you are given along the way. You only have one shot at this life – do it well.

That is a big title, right? Aren't we all chasing success in some way or the other? But to claim that it's possible to always succeed... well, hang in there just a second. In order to capture the elusive success, we have to pin her down! Who is she, and when do we even know…

We live in the Information Age, and have more options than ever. More options also means more hard choices, and the risk of being afflicted by FOMO is ever existent—even sometimes seeping into our branding work. FOMO—an abbreviation for Fear Of Missing Out—is a feeling most of us have felt on some level. In short…

Wix is simple and you can do it yourself. “Yourself” being the keyword that determines whether the Wix-way is your way. In this article I weigh the pros and cons of using Wix, versus hiring a professional to manage your web presence. There are many more or less simple tools out there you can use…

Recently I have gone down the path of typography, and it lead me further than I intended (no pun indented—really). There are two reasons why I started, and here they are. First of All I wanted to start another side project. I can't help it, I love starting something new—to build a brand from scratch.…

So you just got a new shiny website up and running, but no one seems to care. Tumbleweed rolls across your url, and no one knows your address—how will your website succeed?

Generation two of the Old Newspaper WordPress theme has finally come out. And together with that, the launch of old-newspaper.com. Since I made the first version of the WordPress theme I have been wanting to start over and do it from the bottom up again. But that takes time. Now that I went back to building…
